The region of La Rioja is characterized by a millenary tradition in the production of wine, which some say comes from Roman times. At the end of the 19th century, Bordeaux winemakers came to the area, identifying suitable characteristics in its terrain and climate, to begin an extensive production that has made the DO Rioja the most important in the country today in day.
Take advantage of the opportunity to visit two medium-sized wineries in the area and learn the secrets of winemaking. Then, stroll in the medieval village of Laguardia, on top of a hill, to enjoy a panoramic view of the great plain of vineyards.
